It's generally assumed that Libertarians draw from Republicans, but this isn't really true--I think they draw about 50-50. Libertarians have the small government philosophy associated with Republicans (although Bush has been anything but 'small governmetn'), but they also have the social liberties that are associated with Democrats (Who thinks the Libertarians want a Constitutional amendment to prohibit gay marriage?)
So unlike Nader and the Greens, the Libertarians draw from both parties. They might have 5% of the vote in NM, but that doesn't mean they'll have any effect on the outcome of the election.
The email address got a little confused, what with my attempt to obscure it for the Bots. The missing piece is just my Slashdot user name AT yahoo do com.
There, that should do it.
I can't help with your specific question. However, there was a REALLY good cover story a few weeks ago in the New York Times Magazine on a child with cerebral palsy being integrated in the classroom. It describes an effort to truly integrate children with disabilities as though they were any other student. It may very well provide some answers or ideas that your friend might have, outside of your specific request.
As it happens, just today I scanned this article in (6 MB), (I have two nephews with cerebral palsy) and would be happy to email it on to you or your friend. Email me at AT yahoo dot com and I'll send it on. (It's a secondary email for me, so the reply might be slow, but I will reply.)
And being able to see it in wide-screen high resolution with 5.1 sound, if you have a tank firing, you hear it coming out of one ear and see it leaving out of the other ear. It's just incredible. Just to be able to see it like you're actually sitting there is amazing.
This guy is way, way to excited about war. Mayybe he should enlist.
My brother is an MBA student, and he did a school project for Proctor and Gamble in their pet food division. P&G loved the work that he (and others) did for them. My brother mentioned to the head of Iams that P&G had declined to give him an internship for the summer, so he was going to accept an internship at the pet food division of Colgate. The division head said, "Would you work here if we can find a place for you?" and my brother said he would.
Well, they didn't find a place for him, so he accepted at Colgate. Then P&G threatens to sue my brother if he goes to Colgate. He signed a NDA agreement when he did the project for P&G, but he *never* signed a non-compete agreement. If he had gone to court over this, he may or may not have won, but the threat alone was sufficient for Colgate to rescind their offer, for fear that they would later be sued by P&G.
All of this for a measly INTERN!
If "they" want to stop you from working somewhere, they can, whether or not they're in the right.
Tyler Hamilton has a website too. I don't know why his wasn't included along with Armstrong's and Ullrich's. Personally, Tyler is my pick for the winner of the TDF this year. Riding with a broken collarbone last year (finishing 4th, and winning a stage!), and riding with a broken shoulder blade in the Tour of Italy the year before (finishing 2nd!), he has more tenacity than even Lance. And this year, Tyler has the form. Watch out Lance!
I've been using Thunderbird on Linux (Fedora) since.3 and I love it. However, when I upgraded to.7 from.6, it didn't import all of my mail, account information, and preferences. In all of my previous upgrades, all of these things imported on their own. Did they change the folder where these things get stored? How do you import them?
I want to know whether SCO will indemnify Linux-users against the possibility that, once the legal wrangling is done, we do not need to pay them license fees for Linux. Will they refund the money?
It would be a good public-relations move for them to do this, even if it would amount to an empty promise: If no one needs to pay SCO for Linux, then SCO will be bankrupt PDQ and there won't be any money to refund.
Indeed you are right. My post should have been more limited than referring just to mute people.
I was trying not to talk too much about myself, and in so doing left out a key point. I really should have added that he has cerebral palsy. So far, he has very little ability to control his arms and hands but, as evidenced by the pops and clicks he makes, he does have fairly good dexterity with his mouth.
So for those who can neither speak nor communicate with their hands, I never realized there could be another option.
This was really interesting to me personally. I have a young nephew whose vocal chords don't work, and it doesn't look like he'll ever be able to talk normally.
However, there's no reason to think that he won't be able to learn to whistle. He's still quite young, but he's already learned various clicks and pops that he can make with his mouth to get your attention. But if he could learn to whistle, and associate a vocabulary with that whistling, it would obviously help him communicate.
I suppose there are quite a few mute people that could benefit from this. Who else could benefit?
Mr. Szulik, as a publicly traded company, you have an obligation to your stock holders to earn profits for the company. (At least, as a stock holder, I hope you do!) At the same time, Red Hat has played a strong role in developing open source software that won't play any direct role in realizing profits (though perhaps an indirect role). What issues and tradeoffs do you consider between your obligations to the bottom line of profits, and your obligations to the open source community? Do you find that the two are symbiotic? Or do they conflict?
I'm a fairly unsophisticated Linux user, and I recently finished trying out all of the major distributions. I ended up sticking with Fedora 1.
The author complains about not being able to install Flash, but I had no problem whatsoever. I did exactly what Macromedia told me to do (despite the fact that I didn't think it would work) and neither Fedora nor Firebird had any problems with it.
But like the author, I haven't gotten Samba to work. (Well, file access anyway--printer access is just fine.) I had no trouble getting it to work under RH9, but I can't get it to work under Fedora. That at least suggests that the problem isn't entirely me.
I looked into both Net Zero Hi-Speed and Earthlink Plus a couple of months ago. I thought they worked. However, both services require that you use Internet Explorer. I would have switched to one of these services, but it wasn't worth switching to IE.

I didn't know processors have drivers. I figured that driving the processor was, most fundamentally, what OSs are supposed to do.
